No conecto con él, me suena a banda de rock FM. Ed tenía un voz mas potente y personal.

He vuelto a escuchar el tema y no me recuerdan en casi nada a los Live pre-Secret Shamadi, que es donde me quedé. Los veo como otro grupo, que es un mal síntoma. Aún así tengo curiosidad por oirlo.

Live han estrenado el vídeo que han grabado para “The Way Around is Through”, primer single de su nuevo disco, “The Turn”.

Me ha llegado hoy su nuevo disco y encima acabo d encontrar esta golosina en Youtube

aqui una actuacion de Live en exclusiva xa Amazon. La banda suena potentisima y Chris Shinn esta impresionante a las voces

Me encanta esta banda y mas aun ahora con Chris Shinn como cantante

Buenas noticias

Guitarist Chad Taylor of Live has recently revealed on his Facebook page the band were snowed in their studio during Winter Storm Jonus in York, Pennsylvania, which gave them an opportunity to write and record new music. However, currently there have been no plans revealed for a new release.

Espero q no sea cierto pero ya hay rumores q de Live tienen pensado volver con Ed Kowalczyk . Ya sabeis q yo soy mucho mas fan de Chris Shinn (actual cantante de Live) que de Ed Kowalczyk. Justo este mes se publico en el Popu la entrevista que hice con Chris Shinn. Espero q los rumores no sean ciertos. La verdad es q el caso de bandas q han vuelto con sus cantantes originales es larguisima (Motley Crue, Van Halen, Life Of Agony, Anthrax.....). Siempre es una posicion dura para el nuevo cantante y los fans parecen no aceptar a alguien nuevo cantando en la banda. Espero q solo sea un rumor pero la banda no lo ha dejado claro. Parece q se cumple el 25 aniversario de Mental Jewerly y hay ofertas importantes para una gira. Veremos q pasa, pero yo espero q sigan con Chris Shinn.... Joder, es q al pobre de Shinn sus bandas no le duran mas de un disco. (un disco con Unified Theory, un disco con Everything Is Energy, un disco con Live, un disco en solitario). Esta banda necesita continuidad. Lo dicho, q espero q ojala no vuelvan con Ed

Is Live Reuniting With Ed Kowalczyk?



Recently, a fan posted to Live’s Facebook page pleading for the band to reunite with original Live vocalist Ed Kowalczyk. Four days later, Live shared the message to their main page:



With the 25th anniversary of the release of the band’s debut album Mental Jewelry on the horizon, could this be a hint that Live may be reuniting with founding vocalist Ed Kowalczyk?
In 2009, the band split under very tumultuous circumstances, which included ridiculous lawsuits, Kowalczyk trying to get a lead singer bonus, and plenty of drama in the press, making it seem any positive relationship between the original members of the band and their founding vocalist was over. In 2014, with Kowalczyk continuing on with a solo career, Live brought in former Unified Theory vocalist Chris Shinn for The Turn, which many fans considered the band’s best release since 1997’s Secret Samadhi.
The last update that we received from Live was in January of this year, when guitarist Chad Taylor posted on his Facebook page that Live was recording new music. However, the person providing vocals wasn’t mentioned in the post. Since the January post, updates on the current state of the band have been silent. Shinn, Kowalczyk, and the rest of Live have not posted any updates on recording or spoke to the media in several months. What is apparent however, is even if the band is not reuniting with Kowalczyk, the simple act of sharing that particular post shows a definite change of heart from recent times by acknowledging the chemistry the band had with their former lead singer.

Los rumores de la vuelta de Kowalczyk a Live siguen y Chad Taylor ni confirma ni desmiente.

Live guitarist Chad Taylor posted on his Facebook page yesterday a quote from Dr Suess that read “Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened.” Taylor also added he was “grateful, blessed, and thankful.”



It’s interesting to note that the band’s original frontman Ed Kowalczyk has no tour dates currently scheduled, and current singer Chris Shinn hasn’t been mentioned on Facebook in months. A reunion with Kowalczyk has been rumored.

Alternative Nation recently messaged Taylor requesting an interview to discuss the state of Live, he replied back with:

“Jeremy – thanks for reaching out. I’m taking a long break from interviews but truly appreciate your support. I’m focused on impacting my local community, making records for some new artists and of course my family. That’s all I’ll say for now. Maybe sometime next year we can discuss band stuff. Keep up the good work until then.”

Even though the band is keeping quiet, the hints they have been giving recently makes it seem that there are more big changes on the way, which could either be the band breaking up, or the band reuniting with Ed Kowalczyk but also having a positive break-up with current vocalist Chris Shinn.

However, in July of this year, it did seem Live had a change of heart regarding former vocalist Ed Kowalczyk. A fan praised Kowalczyk on Facebook and the band shared the post. That post has since been deleted.

Parece q Christopher Thorn se ha pasado unos dias en Nashville grabando lo q sera el segundo disco en solitario de Chris Shinn. Espero q lo de Live acabe bien para el bueno de Shinn, pero me alegra tambien q este trabajando en su segundo disco en solitario

Chris Shinn y Christopher Thorn en el estudio de Shinn en Nashville grabando un nuevo disco en solitario

Chad Taylor y Ed Kowalczyk han coincidido en una radio (aunq no han hablado de una reunion) y han estado charlando durante casi una hora. Parece ser q luego se fueron a cenar juntos . Vamos, esto es ya casi definitivo..... Chris Shinn esta fuera de la banda. Shinn se encuentra en estos momentos en Nashville grabando un segundo disco en solitario y hace ya bastante tiempo q no hay ninguna fecha de gira x parte de Live. La banda nunca ha desmentido, x otra parte, los rumores de reunion, asi q..... . Me da pena por Shinn pq parecia haber encontrado, x fin, una banda estable en la q estar (y pq ademas soy muy fan de su voz).

Era un secreto a voces pero parece q ya es oficial. La banda ha despedido a Chris Shinn y Ed Kowalczyk ha vuelto a la banda. Me da pena por Chris Shinn. Recuerdo q cuando lo entrevisté el tio esta un poco decepcionado por un ultimo año sin casi actividad pero con ganas de grabar un nuevo disco con ellos. Se le veía con ganas de avanzar y mas o menos dejo caer q la actividad de la banda habia caido bastante pero no por el, si no por cuestiones familiares, etc. Espero q Chris Shinn saque ese segundo disco en solitario en el q estaba trabajando (x cierto con ayuda de Christopher Thorn) y saque adelante esos otros 2 proyectos en los q estaba trabajando (un disco con varios cantantes y un LP o EP con Gary Lucas



Yesterday, Ed Kowalczyk updated his profile photo on his Facebook page to an image of himself with a Live logo and naming himself as a member of Live, and also naming himself as the Lead Singer/Songwriter of Live in the “about” section of his profile. In addition, Live’s Facebook page has updated their cover photo to a retro image of the band which includes Kowalczyk.




It has been long rumored that Live was going to reunite with Kowalczyk. After a radio appearance with Live bandmate Chad Taylor last month, speculation of a reunion grew rampant among Live fans

In 2009, the original members of Live split under very tumultuous circumstances, which included lawsuits, Kowalczyk trying to get a lead singer bonus, and plenty of drama in the press, making it seem any positive relationship between the original members of the band and their founding vocalist was over.

buenisima noticia, las cosas vuelven a su sitio, me sabe mal por shinn pero, ed es mucho ed, ahora con un poco de suerte gira europea para celebrar el aniversario de "mental jewelry" , que no pasará por españa pero bueno ..

Los rumores a voces ya son oficiales. Live vuelven con Ed. Chris Shinn fuera. Recuerdo q Shinn comento q estaba deseando ponerse a componer con ellos de nuevo pero q aun no se habian puesto a ello. Ahora ya sabemos q los otros miembros de Live se debian estar escondiendo las composiciones para la reunion con Ed pq parece q en breves van a grabar nuevo disco

The original line-up of +LIVE+--Ed Kowalczyk (vocals, guitar), Chad Taylor (guitar, backing vocals), Patrick Dahlheimer (bass) and Chad Gracey (drums, percussion)--have reunited for a worldwide tour including North America in 2017. The band is now writing and recording new music TBA.

The original line-up of +LIVE+ performed their last show in July 2009 before going off in different directions. Rediscovering their friendship has healed old differences, setting the stage for the four members to come together to make music again.

Aqui dejo alguna version clasica de Live con Chris Shinn como vocalista. Son versiones acusticas q acabaron en la version asutraliana de The Turn

Aqui os dejo un link con la ultima entrevista con Chris Shinn. Habla de su carrera musical con Unified Theory su disco en solitario y sobre todo su experiencia en Live. La entrevista en interesantisima y comenta como los mimebros de Live ni le comentaron q volvia con Ed, intentaron eliminar todos los videos de Chris Shinn con Live en youtube y q basicamente le trataron fatal en el ultimo año. No les culpa de haber vuelto con Ed..... lo entiende y tal, pero no le gusta como hicieron las cosas. Muy interesante la entrevista. Os la recomiendo
